Yes. "knifes" it's etched on the blade. Ryno states on his website that he is the maker. Looks like knives of Pakistani origin to me. Made in the USA? Any insight would be helpful.
Thanks.
 
No insight. The words "founded in Brazoria Texas" isn't exactly the same as "made in". But as you say, on his site he states that he makes them.
However his knives are carried on AG Russell's site as "Made in USA". In terms of style, design and appearance I can see how they can look like
Pakistani knives. Hopefully someone can shed some light.
 
I would think that knives handled in the USA would use materials commonly used by USA based makers in that price range. Micarta, G-10, Curly Maple etc. The knives on AG Russell's site are handled in black wood and white bone in one instance, and scorched bone in the other. It seems a bit off to me. Made in the USA is important to some, especially in the $140 to $160 range that his knives retail for.
 
I hate to see the fine folks at AG Russell involved, But to see "Ryno's Damascus Knifes" listed on the same page as Randall Knives is a bit unsettling,
